Pants on, alive, and a little burnt, our Problem Players emerge victorious! Hopefully Thrax doesn't notice a missing ship.

Thank you to everyone who tuned in! We'll see you all at the same time next Sunday (9AM EST) 💜

Now at sea, our Problem Players find themselves amidst a surprise inspection gone wrong. Seems like there's no talking their way outta this one.

(Alternatively? Our Director REALLY wanted to run ship combat.)

Let's hope they can swim as we resume their story TOMORROW at 9am EST live on twitch!
October 11, 2025 at 6:10 PM
Thanks to everyone who tuned in! You can join us again at the same time, 2PM EST, next Sunday before our story resumes the following week.

We swear we won't TPK this time. (Well, no promises...)

Our Director can't join us for BG3, but he can sure be here in spirit!

Sadly, we're down a problem player tomorrow (don't worry, our Director hasn't successfully killed one of us yet, they're just sick!)

Our story may pause this week, but you can still join us live on twitch at 2PM EST tomorrow while the rest of us play BG3 and yap. Audience participation encouraged!

I don't think Azeban knows what Azeban looks like, either, to be fair.
Sketching some @problemplayerspod.bsky.social ... do NOT ask me Azeban looks like, okay??

need to start a support group for artists incapable of drawing their own PC...

Our illustrator, @rivermpillustrates.bsky.social, is apparently so talented that Instagram thought this loading-screen-in-progress was generative AI. Go figure. Incase anyone was wondering, we do not support AI usage at all, both inside and outside of TTRPGs. ALWAYS support #humanart :^)

Of course! Ep 1 up is now :)
